NAME
       icetWallTime -- timer function


Synopsis
       #include <IceT.h>

       IceTDouble icetWallTime(   void   )


Description
       Retrieves the current time, in seconds. The returned values of icetWallTime are only valid
       in relation to each other. That is, the time may or may not have anything to do  with  the
       current  date or time. However, the difference of values between two calls to icetWallTime
       is the elapsed time in seconds between the two calls.  Thus,  icetWallTime  is  handy  for
       determining  the running time of various subprocesses. icetWallTime is used internally for
       determining    the    values    for    the    state    variables    ICET_BUFFER_READ_TIME,
       ICET_BUFFER_WRITE_TIME,    ICET_COLLECT_TIME,    ICET_COMPARE_TIME,   ICET_COMPOSITE_TIME,
       ICET_COMPRESS_TIME, ICET_RENDER_TIME, and ICET_TOTAL_DRAW_TIME.


Return Value
       The current time, in seconds.


Errors
       None.


Warnings
       None.


Bugs
       None known.
